Stephane Javelle found IC 1334 = J. 1-396 on 22 Jul 1892. His position is accurate. Javelle likely discovered this galaxy the previous August, but his position for IC 1333 was 2' too far north, so he apparently thought it was a different galaxy. Most likely, IC 1333 = IC 1334. PGC labels the galaxy as IC 1334, though IC 1333 refers to the earlier observation.

600/800mm - 24" (7/14/18): at 375x; fairly faint, fairly small, elongated 3:2 ~E-W, 30"x20", gradually increases to the center but no distinct core or nucleus. Located 10' SW of mag 8.5 HD 198730.
